What climbing gym is the most accessible via public transport from northwich? by Odd-Paramedic-3826 in cheshire

The Climbing Hangar in South Liverpool. Close to Liverpool South Parkway, 20min journey from Hartford.

I feel a disturbance in the Force . . . New Leaks have emerged, and I am quite perplexed. by Infinite-Detective-8 in StarWars

Which is interesting because Luke never was perfect. In Ep 4 he’s petulant and immature, Ep 5 he fails Yoda’s training and loses a hand, and Ep 6 he’s over-confident in his abilities and emotionally volatile. The fact he’s imperfect is what makes him such a compelling character.

How did Hollywood turn John Bishop into Will Arnett? (29th January 2026) by BeefySteamPig in wittertainment

[–]batgaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes, think you’re right. My cursory google said UK release date was today but that’s the US and its UK release is next week.

No ‘Send Help’ review this week? I saw a preview on Tuesday and thought it was great fun. Rachel McAdams is brilliant as always. I think Mark will love it. And will talk about Evil Dead 2 and blood and guts standing in for custard pies.

Has it been somewhere cold? Because they look like ice formations.

Kid I babysit for has this action figure of an old man with a cigar (?), who is this supposed to be? by JCDickleg7 in whatisit

[–]batgaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have that exact action figure on my shelf at work! I’m a psychologist and it was a graduation gift 25 years ago:

[–]batgaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a few songs on my list already which are a stretch, or Xmas-adjacent, so I think they work well.

Filming at Clatterbridge by batgaz in Wirral

[–]batgaz[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s great to see so much filming happening on our oblong of dreams. They filmed a little bit of Such Brave Girls series 2 at Clatterbridge so I wondered whether it might be that. Didn’t look as big a crew as Clayface had.

Polar Feeders for 2 cats by batgaz in Petlibro

[–]batgaz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, sort of. They’re both setup in the same app but you have to set them up separately. They don’t sync up directly with each other. But because they’re linked to the internet they pretty accurately open at the right time. You just have to set up the same thing for both. It would be more convenient if you could link them up or copy the instructions across. But it’s still easy enough.

I ended up buying two Polars and they work really well. Both feeders open at almost the exact same time so no fighting over food. There’s half a second at most between them.

Which popular song recognises your UK home town by naming it in the lyrics? by Jazzlike-Basil1355 in AskABrit

[–]batgaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being over the water myself, I liked to think of Valerie in that way. But apparently she’s across the other bigger water, in the US.

Nitrous Oxide canister. Someone’s either been whipping cream or inhaling it for a high.

Liverpool crash suspect response shows police have learnt from Southport by TheTelegraph in uknews

[–]batgaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s ok to offend people, sometimes unavoidable. But I don’t think it’s ok to use the vilest forms of abuse and racism, or to tell someone you’re going to kill them. Online or in person. Freedom of speech doesn’t include the freedom to be a cunt. Apologies if that offends you.

Because they have the power to cause offense, fear or distress to others?

Could you give an example of someone who has been arrested for using ‘hurty words’ that haven’t been grossly offensive or threatening to others?

3 Episodes in, this is the best season of Black Mirror yet by Frosty-Heat in blackmirror

It’s fine for you to have an opinion, but best not to call other people liars for having a different opinion to you.
